I just forwarded a paypal spoof email to paypal yesterday. This scam alerts you that there are suspicious activities and charges on your credit card with paypal. They provide a link to their site so you can log in and view your acct. info. Their url is not paypal, though paypal is part of it. I didn't go beyond that point, but I'm sure they would require you to input your credit card info. to verify your identity for security reasons.

They're getting very good at spoofing sites. And no, they didn't address me by name. Just a fake acct. number.

If you don't have the common sense to restrict giving out your personal information and pw to some unknown individual claiming they are affiliated with a internet organization then you don't have the responsibility to use such services as Paypal. In reality, its sad but you really can not trust everyone you communicate with.
